Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9801327A1] A wiper blade for cleaning motor vehicle windshields has an elastic, elongated supporting element (12) for supporting an elongated wiping strip made of a flexible material and supported on the windshield to be wiped. The wiping strip has at its longitudinal side opposite longitudinal grooves in which are located longitudinal rails (28, 30) of the supporting element which are mutually spaced apart. The central section (42) of the supporting element has a connection device for a driven wiper arm and the cross-section of both longitudinal rails (28, 30) diminishes from their central section (42) towards the ends (48) of the rails. Both adjacent ends of the longitudinal rails are interconnected by a crossbar so as to form a single piece. A particularly easy-to-produce and easy-to-mount wiper blade is obtained if the longitudinal rails of the supporting element have a constant thickness (34) over their whole length and if the width (44, 46) of the supporting element diminishes from its central section towards its two ends.
